As Jon says we are on the case, but it is not simple.
BTW not done deliberately, more a result of counties/countries being put in
relations and then picking up styling by default that was designed with some
other instance in mind. This is equally true of rendering names along
boundaries which was not designed for, but is an artefact of the same process.

I discussed this with Steve8 a few days ago on IRC and the plan is to:
- Hide any boundary rendering on ways with natural=coastline
- When there is more than one boundary on a given way, only render the
one with the lowest admin_level. This corresponds to the most important
boundary.
It is complicated by the fact that the information has to be
cross-referenced across multiple objects. This will need some extra
processing in osm2pgsql to implement and it may be a few weeks before I
get around to it.
